ANNUAL TOWN MEETING
Reading Memorial High School April 27, 2009
i
Town Clerk Cheryl Johnson sworn in elected Town Meeting members before their
precinct meetings. Precincts 2 and 5 did not appoint anyone to fill a vacated seat until the
next local election.
The meeting was called to order by the Moderator, Alan E. Foulds, at 7:42 p.m., there
being a quorum present. The Invocation was given by Philip B. Pacino, Precinct 5
followed by the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. All newly elected and appointed Town
Meeting Members were sworn in by the Moderator.
The Warrant was partially read by the Town Clerk, Cheryl A. Johnson, when on motion
by Stephen Goldy, Chairman of the Board of Selectmen, it was voted to dispense with
further reading of the Warrant except for the Officer's Return, which was read by the
Town Clerk.
ARTICLE 2 - Chairman of the Board of Selectman Stephen Goldy gave the following
State of the Town Report:
Thank you Mr. Moderator and Town Meeting Members.
Thank you to my colleagues on the Board of Selectmen for giving me the honor and
privilege of addressing this body about the state of the Town of Reading.
Peter Hechenbleikner, Bob LeLacheur, Members of Town Staff, Pat Schettini, members
of the school committee and staff; thank you for joining me here tonight.
Congratulations and welcome back to those re-elected members of Town Meeting and all
other offices in town.
Congratulations and welcome to all members just sworn in tonight. The responsibility
you have taken on will shape and enhance the future of Reading. The responsibility to
discuss debate and decide what is important for our community. We all as individuals
here tonight strive to achieve the best place to live and raise a family. I know that
everyone here works hard to reach that goal. Once in a while I wonder why I take on this
type of responsibility. I answer that with a quote or more a challenge from Homer. He
stated in the Illiad: "Failing your community is the greatest failure of all!"
Turbulent and extraordinary times:
Words that describe the state of our economy at the federal level, at the state level and
most importantly right here at home. Turbulent and extraordinary does not have to result
in a negative outcome. Surviving turbulent and extraordinary, calls for sacrifice and
change.
Annual Town Meeting
April 27, 2009
As we enter into difficult and important budget discussions, one thing I ask Town
Meeting to remember tonight is that our neighbors are also experiencing extraordinary
economic hardships. Residents are concerned about or coping with job losses and local
businesses are struggling with reduced revenues and escalating expenses.
Dreams, opportunities and dilemmas:
In February of last year members of this community participated in a community
conversation. Themes that emerged from that conversation can be categorized as dreams,
opportunities and dilemmas. Themes that all call for change.
In Fiscal Year 2009 change happened in our community.
We heard a call for more opportunities for community involvement and interaction for
our youth. In October, The Board of Selectmen piloted a new role, that of youth liaison.
I now want to introduce to Town Meeting Sarah Mulroy. Sarah, as youth liaison, is
providing a voice in town government for our youth, thank you Sarah.
On June 30th of this year our long time Director of Public Works, Ted McIntire is
retiring. Thank you for your 38 years of dedicated service to our community. I now
want to introduce to you our newly hired Director, Jeff Zager. Welcome aboard Jeff.
This is Cheryl Johnson's last Town Meeting. She served our community as Town Clerk
for 13 years, thank you Cheryl for your service.
Change is evident at some of our recreational areas. Collins field has a brand new
artificial turf surface. We are near completion on our brand new tennis courts after some
unanticipated hurdles. Memorial Park is getting an exciting new face lift this summer
thanks in large part to the efforts of Friends of Reading Recreation and Nelson Burbank
and Master Plans are just about completed for the Birch Meadow area and Washington
Park.
Changes in Finance include Munis implementation including payroll, hr, accounting,
purchasing and collections. Please do not underestimate the enormity of this endeavor.
The implementation does not have all the pizzazz of some of the other changes in our
community but I can assure you that the budget process this year for the Finance
Committee, School Committee and Board of Selectmen was improved greatly.
New community training and informational initiatives were developed in the last year.
We recently held a training session for the chairs and vice-chairs of all the Board of
Selectmen appointed boards, committees, and commissions.
There was an event training and informational meeting held for all non-profits and
organizations in our community. The purpose was to make it easier for our community
organizations to navigate the myriad of state and local rules and regulations. This will be
further developed in to a manual available at Town Hall and on our community web site.
2 Annual Town Meeting
April 27, 2009
Customer service management and measurement was a major focus and change driven by
the Board of Selectmen in the past year. This change will yield improved service and
community interaction from all departments in Town Hall.
One of the biggest challenges and subsequent changes we are facing is economic and
community development. We have and need to continue to make the investment for
growth. Fiscal Year 2009 saw various growth investment initiatives such as: .
In June we had Fox 25 News broadcast their morning show with a Zip Trip from Reading
Common. The Reading community came out in force and bragged about what a great
place to live and work Reading is.
We have an Economic Development Commission that none of us can keep pace with.
Working with the Community Planning and Development Commission they are trying to
make some change that will foster growth.
Some of our economic development initiatives and results are the revamped alleyway in
downtown, review and possible proposed changes to our sign by-laws, working on
business friendly zoning changes on South Main Street, business recruitment and coming
on September 13, the first annual Reading Fall Street Faire.
The Board of Selectmen updated and made changes to our liquor policies. These policy
changes make the policies both business and community friendly. Our community at
large also voted in the last election to make a change to our liquor bylaws. Now
restaurants with less than 100 seats may apply for a license.
And finally as evident to anyone walking in our downtown, the reconstruction project is
nearly complete. More than a ten year process resulting in a downtown that is going to
be the heart of soul of Reading. A place where families can meet up for dinner or
shopping, a place where neighbors can meet up for coffee or a glass of wine and
hopefully a place we will use as a cultural and historical centerpiece.
The results of all these efforts and our community investment in change is seven new
businesses open or opening in Reading including the Swiss Bakers, Ristorante Pavrotti,
Be Gifted, Aine's boutique, a new restaurant coming at the former site of the Wayside
Bazaar, and coming soon a new meat and poultry shop on Haven Street, as well as the
new branch of Salem Five bank. There are also two property owners investing in our
downtown. They have plans to develop more retail and residences on their downtown
properties.
There is change happening in our community but we cannot sit back and rest. As I
mentioned earlier we are in turbulent and extraordinary times and surviving these times
as a community calls for sacrifice and change. The fiscal year 2010 budget we are about
to discuss is most likely the easiest of the next few.
3 Annual Town Meeting
April 27, 2,009
Our community needs to think differently to get through. Services will be cut and
reduced, priorities will change and status quo will be no longer. Doing things a certain
way because that is the way we always do it is unacceptable. I challenge our community
to bring about community-wide change.
I received an interesting letter from a student at RMHS, Jesse Downing. Based on the
low interest in open Town Meeting positions Jesse recommends that we make a change to
the terms of town meeting members. I also had an interesting conversation with one of
our election officials who made similar recommendations.
Turbulent and extraordinary times call for sacrifice and change. Maybe it's time to
conduct a study and determine if we need to make changes to our Charter. This can be
our next major step in making Reading the best place to live and raise a family; a step to
seizing opportunities, solving dilemmas and fulfilling dreams.
Thank you for your time tonight; I look forward to our work ahead.
